More quotes by Debbie Reynolds
I had a lot of fun with Frank Sinatra, because he was such a hooligan, and so to himself, he was the king, and everything was his way, and I enjoyed watching that.
Debbie Reynolds
Marilyn Monroe was a very sweet girl, she was a very innocent girl.
Debbie Reynolds
If you're a dancer, study singing. You have to do everything and do it well. You have to study acting. You have to study all of it. You have to find workshops, get out on the stage...and fail.
Debbie Reynolds
I started to earn money because we didn't have money.
Debbie Reynolds
Do I run around deploring the world? No. I'm just not into it. I was brought up that way.
Debbie Reynolds
I wanted to be as comfortable in that environment as she was. I moved around those areas in character.
Debbie Reynolds
Anything worthwhile is hard, and dancing is very hard, and if you've ever studied dancing of any kind you'd know that to be in precision, three people dancing together.
Debbie Reynolds
My belief also is that Marilyn Monroe passed away long before she should have left us.
Debbie Reynolds
[Marilyn Monroe] was a bit temperamental, a little diva-like, but she didn't deserve what she got.
Debbie Reynolds
Donald O'Connor was in the film [ 'Singin' in the Rain' ] as well, and he was only 27 years old. So we were closer in age, and had more fun together on the set. Gene was more my teacher and mentor.
Debbie Reynolds
Every performer should learn a little bit of everything. Most performers today only play the guitar.
Debbie Reynolds
Near the end, she [Marilyn Monroe] was badly treated by Fox Studios, during the 'Let's Make Love' film shoot in 1960, they threw her off the set because she had a cold.
Debbie Reynolds
I loved going to films, but as far as a movie buff, when I came into the movies at 16, life changed a little bit for me, from an onlooker to a person that lived within the industry. So now I would call myself a different sort of fan.
Debbie Reynolds
Singin' in the Rain (1952) and childbirth were the two hardest things I ever had to do in my life.
Debbie Reynolds
I'm just a movie fan. I used to go to the movies just to watch movies.
Debbie Reynolds
I tour all year, 42 weeks a year, so it's hard for me to remember every place I play.
Debbie Reynolds
I've always put my own money into my own shows because today, if you want to stay in the business, you have to produce your own product because there is not enough production and enough people that create today so if you wanna work you produce it or you stay home.
Debbie Reynolds
I always avoid not working.
Debbie Reynolds
Marilyn Monroe was taken advantage of by most of the men that knew her, including Frank Sinatra and Joe DiMaggio, whom I also knew very well.
Debbie Reynolds
I also have a pair of ruby red slippers from the 'Wizard of Oz' and Dorothy's gingham dress...and on and on. I saved as much as I could and still do, because people are still interested in it.
